September 29, 20186 yr I just watched this for the first time this series. won't be watching again no ma'am.
September 30, 20186 yr This was probably the worst Six Chair Challenge stage yet...there was just no drama? And the decisions were pretty bad. Somehow it managed to be simultaneously rushed and dragged out.
September 30, 20186 yr Also mess at Sharon now pulling out of the live shows LMAO...she knows a sinking ship when she sees one!

September 30, 20186 yr That was quite possibly the most shoddy and terrible episode of X Factor ever, edited really badly and completely rushed through pretty much everyone apart from the golden button or whatever they're called acts, and even then Bella was possibly the weakest of the 6 girls left on seats... I mean a couple of the audition episodes were kinda boring and lacking in standout moments or real talent but at least they were coherent episodes of TV. It just left me feeling like I care even less about the acts sat there, I could barely remember how half of them were or what song they sang, so I was thinking swap most of them out I don't care :lol: And then of course pretty much the only one bar Shan who was actually really good (Lanya) got swapped out BEFORE that Britain's Got Talent 7th in the semi fodder from that woman who did The Prayer and did both Celine and Andrea's parts :drama: Her being switched out is one of the most baffling Six Chair moments ever. None of the others left bar Shan and maybe Bella (I don't like her voice, but there's at least something, she screams being the unique one in a girlband) have much to them or much to remember. But of course when you don't really get a chance to judge them or digest their performance, it's going to feel muted and flat. I always feel like that if I rush through a new album or a set of songs for a contest on here, if you just rush through they don't leave any impression on you and you feel really disappointed, even if they're actually good and you realise later when you actually give it time. We don't need to see the entirety of every performance but I had Strictly paused for a couple minutes before the last dance, so when I put it back on to watch I switched XF on a minute or two late and they had 3 seats filled :lol: I agree with "rushed but drawn out" for sure, they totally blitzed through the actual acts but it felt like the category was never done because before they were done they switched back to the other category, and even at the end of the episode they felt the need to leave it hanging. And really, who actually cares *that* much? Like yes I'm still watching, but there's a lot to be said for just getting on with it. It doesn't command the amount of attention it used to, it's not such an event, it doesn't need to pretend like the whole nation is hanging on to find out and drag it out for even longer. It's absolutely fine as a fairly easy watch where you watch some people singing, but they seem intent on butchering it with the editing etc. It's a shame because the Six Chair Challenge is normally really good and I get quite into the whole swapping thing, but it's been worse than the auditions so far which were hardly stellar :/
September 30, 20186 yr Yesterday's episode was the first I tuned in for because I usually prefer Six Chair to the Auditions stage. As mentioned, it was so sloppily edited and ultimately just so boringly predictable. There's no real fun to the concept any more. The judges fill the seats up quickly to create as many swaps as possible for "drama", all the tired "bring them back" chants... blah. Barely anyone shown yesterday was all that good, certainly not to get worked up about if their seat was taken away. The new golden button thing was a fail for me purely because it was used on two acts I didn't understand the appeal of, at least not to the extent of giving them a short cut to the judges homes. Going back and forth between Simon & Ayda's categories was a really bad call. I'll probably swerve the rest of the Six Chair episodes and see if it's worth picking up again at Judges Houses.
September 30, 20186 yr It's only on for an hour tonight so are we getting the sing off, the last of the overs, the boys and the groups in just an hour? Surely not :drama: Or is this going to continue next weekend? EDIT: Just checked and six chair is next Saturday as well.
September 30, 20186 yr There is only 1 decent act in the overs, and that is Grace, the rest are pretty much useless.
September 30, 20186 yr Is Danny just going to "sing" And I Am Telling You at every stage? :lol: Ayda has an absolutely horrendous category :/ Panda and Burgundy were incredible and shouldn't have been swapped out but really what are two 40+ year old gospel/soul ish singers going to do as a group? :lol:
September 30, 20186 yr This lad in the white shirt...his voice is literally nails on a chalk board, what on EARTH
September 30, 20186 yr Simon and Louis' golden buzzers being among their worst acts :') Brendan's voice is excruciating to listen to, I actually had to pause and then fast forward with the accumulated time.......
